At the Hong Kong Bar, there are fantastic cocktails created by talented mixologists from some of the hippest bars in Hong Kong, including CÉ LA VI, Maison Eight, Angel’s Share, Bao Bei, Stockton, Fu Lu Shou, Sohofama, The Envoy, NEO Cocktail Club and Seafood Room. Don’t miss the HK-inspired cocktails, such as The Envoy’s Haig-a-Horlick, which combines whisky with malted milk, turning a childhood drink into an adult indulgence. Angel’s Share takes the classic Hong Kong drink Sprite with salted lemon and adds Taiwan’s best-selling single malt Scotch whisky to evoke the flavours of caramel, orange peel and ginger candy.

Visitors looking to indulge during this four-day event will not be disappointed with many more gastronomic experiences in Country Pavilion, Street Eat, Whisky Corner and Cheese Parade.
